Honeywell transforms distribution centre operations with new wearable technology

A new hands-free
wearable solution from Honeywell Scanning & Mobility has been engineered to drive
efficiency, productivity and accuracy in distribution and warehousing
environments.

A hands-free,
wrist-mounted version of the Dolphin 70e Black mobile device, the new wearable
device is specifically designed for warehouse operations including picking,
packing and shipping.

Lynn Huang, APAC
Head of Marketing & Strategy at Honeywell Scanning & Mobility, explains
that distribution centre operators in Asia Pacific are seeking the most
flexible, application-expandable and future-proofed solutions that are aligned
with the changing needs of the industry. By engineering innovative technologies
such as wearable devices, Honeywell is able to deliver the solutions needed by
customers to remain competitive in a fast-changing environment.

The Honeywell
wearable solution is a cost-effective option that allows the use of a
general-purpose device for a wide variety of enterprise applications, making it
ideal for information technology leaders looking for the benefits of hands-free
operations without having to re-engineer their devices.

Key features of the
Honeywell wearable solution include comfortable and hygienic armband designed
to be worn for extended periods of time; easy sharing allowed between workers;
large display with flexible touchscreen keypads; Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5
operating system architecture; and support for tethered and BT ring scanners.

Ideally suited to
give workers the freedom of movement to maximise workflow productivity, the Honeywell
wearable solution is ergonomic and rugged in design, empowering workers with
hands-free convenience to handle more tasks with fewer disruptions to workflow.

The Honeywell wearable
solution will begin shipping in Asia Pacific in December.
